Signs of Time
2019









This project contains two photo collages and one moving image. During the pandemic and isolation, it’s easy noticing the very detailed things in daily life. You can see the marks on the door, scars on the skin, and fruits decaying, time is passing by, and you find joy when notice these things. The content of the moving image is very easy to understand, it’s just shadows of trees swaying in the wind. The longer you look at it, the more things other than the shadows you start to think about. You imagine what the wind feels like on your skin, when was the last time you actually feel the wind, did you feel cold or warm? As the tree bends more from the wind, you start to remember when you were a kid going to school on a cold winter morning. At that time, you hate it so much, but now you feel it’s such a wonderful thing that you can feel the weather, and live with the weather. And then you feel so peaceful, you accept the past self, it all seemed forgivable.

The time bar in the moving image is intentional, to make people realize and feel time again, in peace, and every moment is precious and enjoyable.
